Everyone in Class 4 was in misery. Facing the insults from the others, they did not even have the strength to stand up, let alone fight back! Philip and the others slumped on the ground and ignored those clowns. They did not forget their purpose, and causing trouble was not on the agenda. Horton, the trouble-making leader of Class 1, felt upset at their indifference. Class 1 was not so aggressive at first. Everyone simply wanted to attend school in peace. Under Horton's instigation, they became very arrogant and agreed to work with Horton to find fault with Class 4. Horton led them to Philip. For some reason, he hated the looks of this guy. The guy in front of him was young and handsome, also a practitioner in the first zone, which made him very jealous. Horton was already in his 30s and had just entered the late stage of the second zone. In the past, he thought he was amazing. He entered the Practitioner Academy to lord over everyone. After he entered Class 1, howe
Philip shrugged at Horton’s meaningless rage. He did not care about the bald guy’s age. As Horton was about to teach Philip a lesson, all the teaching assistants returned to their positions. They asked everyone to return to their seats. No one dared to mess around and quickly did so. Philip and the others stood aside, unfazed. An old man appeared on the field, and he looked exactly like a short gnome. Many people wanted to laugh, but they knew that only a big shot would appear here, so it was better to respect him. “Dear students, I’m your supervisor. To help everyone get used to this academy as soon as possible, we have decided to adopt some common university standards, including the division of classes and the titles of teachers and officers, all of which you should be familiar with.” The gnome kept talking, and many people soon became sleepy. They were not interested in the common standards of other universities, but since the Practitioner Academy adopted that meth
The academy was still in the starting stage, so certain things were not in order. Philip was not concerned about the academy’s future development. He just wanted to find Mr. Hobart as soon as possible. “Young Patriarch, why don't we ask the supervisor later? Although he’s not very strong, his position still means something. We should get some clues by asking him.” Montel wanted to ask the supervisor, but Clementine stopped him. “Are you stupid? That gnome is obviously up to no good. Messing with him is asking for trouble.” Clementine disliked the gnome very much. He kept looking at the women while he was talking, and his gaze made them uncomfortable. “Can't you see that he looks a lot like Horton? They must be family. People like them can probably make your life worse than death,” Philip said with a smile. Everyone smiled thoughtfully. No wonder the gnome looked familiar. They realized it with Philip’s reminder. After the assembly, everyone returned to their assigned
The night passed quickly, and everyone gathered at the field early the next morning. Everyone looked at each other drowsily, obviously not fully awake yet. Even Class 1 was no exception. Most of them were office workers or students, and no one was used to getting up at five in the morning. As everyone kept yawning, Horton’s mind raced. They would be allocated to different classrooms today, and he wanted to take this opportunity to crush Philip. Horton approached Philip. He had a height of 1.6 meters but a courage that did not match. “You guys haven't withdrawn from school yet? But then again, you’re considered quite good in your class. As number one…” Before Horton could finish speaking, a punch hit his face. The punch was full of energy and sent Horton flying. Everyone was dumbfounded. Only Montel and Clementine smiled calmly. They knew about the plan and were not surprised at all. Instead, they felt that Philip did not hit hard enough. “That punch is too wea
Although they hated Horton, everyone knew that he was not to be trifled with. Many people also noticed the similarities between Horton and the supervisor. Maybe they were related. With that realization, fewer people were willing to get involved. Horton challenged Philip. He could not wait any longer. He wanted Philip dead at once! Of course, Philip would not refuse his request. Killing Horton was not a big deal to him. After the two applied for the death match, everyone voluntarily cleared a huge space for them. Montel and Clementine watched the excitement in the crowd and kept a lookout for Arthur Hobart. They had seen Arthur’s photo and knew what he looked like. Although he was old, they could never forget his energetic appearance. The fight between Philip and Horton was about to start. He stared at Horton amicably without any nervousness. Horton looked at Philip triumphantly with a hint of disdain. He had learned two martial arts skills from his uncle. Althou
Horton never dreamed that his legs would be frozen into icicles. “What the hell?” Horton tried to move his legs, but they were no longer under his control. The chill was spreading rapidly. His calves turned into ice at a speed visible to the naked eye. “What did you do to me?!” Horton exclaimed in horror. He never thought he would ever encounter this. According to his plan, he should be killing Philip next, but things took a shocking turn. Not only did he fail to crush Philip, but he was also frozen on the spot by the latter. “What level are you? You can’t be in the first zone! You must've concealed your strength right from the beginning!” Horton screamed in terror. He wanted to call for help, hoping that his uncle would save him. However, his uncle had not appeared yet, and the onlookers were unlikely to get involved in this matter. The two of them had applied for a death match, so they had to compete fairly and justly. No one could help. Anyone who interfered wo
Philip sneered. Sure enough, he had to cause trouble to attract attention. It would probably take him ages to find Mr. Hobart otherwise. The management quickly arrived. They were not very strong and were probably temporary placements. The academy’s security guards also hurried over, all experts in the fourth zone. Philip was surprised that the academy could recruit so many practitioners to work for them. He wondered what made the dean so amazing. Everyone arrived quickly and surrounded Philip. The most arrogant person among them was the security captain. He walked up to Philip with a disdainful smile. He was a powerful practitioner while these students were trash newbies. “Did you kill someone just now?” He was very arrogant and wanted to use Philip to spread his reputation. After all, he was very strong, but the academy merely gave him the position of security captain, which disrespected him. He could not accept being a security captain. He wanted a better po
Everyone knew that newcomers had a one-week safety period, but this incident happened on the second day of school! “That guy was so arrogant because he was a family member of the supervisor. Since he wanted to sign a death match, who am I to refuse?” Philip said uncannily. A hint of understanding flashed across everyone’s faces. They knew that the supervisor had a family member in Class 1, but no one thought he would mess around so soon. The supervisor who looked like a gnome arrived at the scene quickly. He looked at Philip in shocked disbelief. No one expected that a loser who had just started practicing could actually kill a genius. Moreover, Horton was in the second zone. How could he be killed so easily? “Damn it.” Before he could say anything, someone pulled up the surveillance records. Soon, everything came to light, and the gnome could not say another word. “After our verification, Philip is indeed innocent. I hereby declare that the death match is valid a
“He lost his family when their enemies sought revenge while he was very young, so he's quite pitiful in a way.” Philip was not concerned about it. The life story of a loser had nothing to do with him. Moreover, Bryce was clearly up to no good. Getting to know him was a waste of time. “I found all the information he researched. To be honest, I’d think highly of him if he weren't up to no good.” Rabbit waved his paw smugly. He had looked through Bryce’s things and knew exactly what he had researched. Philip looked at a bottle of potion and could tell everything at a glance. “He’s a genius, indeed, but there’s no saving someone with bad intentions.” Philip shook his head helplessly. Bryce could only blame his bad luck for encountering them today. Carlos quickly took care of Bryce. There was no point in keeping such an evil villain. There was no need to be charitable in this situation. Adam looked at the room and sighed helplessly at Bryce’s unfortunate end. Although he had
Philip was curious about this situation. Since he could not get any information from the stubborn hooded man, he would find out indirectly. “That’s enough. Take him away. He has no value to us anyway. It's better to send him away.,” Philip said with disdain and did not take him seriously at all. The hooded man was shocked to hear that Philip was sending him away. He was nervous and afraid that Philip would do something to him. Although he was selfish and unreasonable, he was also a coward and afraid of death. Everyone sighed helplessly at his mournful wails. Adam closed his eyes, unwilling to get involved. Seeing this, Philip believed that Adam was unwilling to pay attention to his nephew, but he was still curious. If they were closely related, why would this guy's family sever all ties with Adam? It was advantageous to be on good terms with Adam. Not only would they receive guidance on practice, but they could also listen to his lectures from time to time. For example,
Philip and the old monk greeted each other happily as if they were old friends. Carlos was surprised to see Philip on such good terms with the high and mighty old monk. This was something he had never even dared to dream about. It was unbelievable that he could sit and drink happily with the old monk one day. “Let me introduce my friends.” Philip calmly introduced everyone around him, ignoring Carlos’ anxiety. Carlos stood up when he saw the old monk. “Hello, my name is Carlos. I admire you very much. I never thought that I'd be able to meet you one day. It’s my honor.” Carlos was happy and excited to get more perks than the guild leader. The old monk was quite friendly. After greeting Carlos with a smile, he looked at Philip curiously, wondering what he was up to. “I want to find out if you know someone.” After saying this, Philip asked Carlos to bring the hooded man out. The guy was tied up tightly and looked pitiful. More importantly, his clothes had been stripped off,
The hooded man woke up very soon, and he could not believe that Philip caught him. “What's going on? How did you catch me? This is impossible.” He was very confident in himself and knew that no one could catch him so easily, but reality had just proven him wrong. He had no choice but to believe it. “What's impossible? You underestimate me too much!” Rabbit snapped furiously. “What’s your name?” Philip stared at the man curiously. He had a feeling that this person was the same as the old monk. “Rabbit, call the old monk over. I want to speak to him. He may not know you, so you need to tell him who you are.” After interrogating this man, Philip wanted to speak to the old monk and find out his opinion about this hooded man. Since the two gave him the same feeling, they had to be connected somehow. Rabbit hopped over to find the old monk. He knew that the old monk was the best referral for this matter because he was very powerful and knowledgeable. The old monk was resting
On the other hand, Lincoln was shocked to find that Hogster was dead. Lincoln had been watching the situation and knew that Philip was a powerful person. Everything was most likely related to Philip. However, he never thought that Philip could make people stronger. He had heard of some special circumstances that could improve someone’s strength. He had roughly guessed the implications but never paid much attention to the matter. In his opinion, the Hexa Guild was already ruined. If he wanted to save the guild, he had to get rid of Alain and his people. Lincoln had lost trust in the guild. If he had not left his seclusion by chance, he would not have bothered about anything. “Forget it. Stop throwing your weight around. Since your son died a tragic death, I won’t make things difficult for you,” Carlos said in disdain.He knew what Alain had done, so he did not have a good impression of him. Although his remark sounded a little hurtful, it felt good to say it. The other guil
“What do we do with him?” Carlos asked. He wanted to skin the hooded man alive. Rabbit bared his teeth. “Kill him! Take off his clothes and hang him outside for everyone to see!” At this time, Alain finally noticed the commotion on this side. They were very noisy, so everyone kept looking over, trying to see what happened. Alain saw a familiar man lying on the ground. “What’s going on?” He walked over for a closer look and saw the hooded man! “What’s this? How could this happen?” Alain was dumbfounded. The onlookers had been watching, so they knew the situation. “What happened?” Alain asked in agony, wondering what happened. A kind onlooker explained, “Oh, don’t you know? That rabbit knocked the hooded man out!” Alain was taken aback by that remark. “How is that possible?” Alain was full of disbelief and thought someone had done something behind the scenes. Although he knew that the rabbit was powerful, he did not think it was strong enough to deal with the hooded
“You went too far! I’m well-respected wherever I go. How dare you treat me as a pet?” Although Rabbit had lost his memories after turning into an inanimate puppet, he could still deduce what had happened from Philip’s remarks. The hooded man was embarrassed to hear a rabbit reprimanding him. “If I can take you as my pet, that’s just a testament to my ability. If Philip couldn’t control you, what’s the big deal if I took you for my own?” The hooded man had always seen Rabbit as a pet, never a friend. Rabbit’s only purpose was to entertain him and fight for him. “Philip, leave this guy to me.” Rabbit was eager to take care of this guy. Carlos glared at the hooded man, certain that he had never seen him before. The hooded man also turned his attention to Carlos. From the match earlier, he knew that Carlos was from the Celestial Palace. In that case, he would have no reservations. He wanted to get to know someone from the Celestial Palace anyway. He ignored Philip and Rabbit
“What?” Carlos suddenly felt that maybe that rabbit in the hooded man's arms was Philip’s pet. “Stay here. I’ll take a closer look. I have a feeling that the guy is more than meets the eye. I think he was the one sneaking around my house.” After saying this, Philip walked over briskly. He had never seen such an arrogant thief. The guy was bold enough to appear in public after stealing someone’s rabbit. “Did you steal that rabbit from me?” Philip approached that man and asked solemnly without beating about the bush. The hooded man was taken aback by Philip's direct approach. “When did you appear behind me?” The hooded man was horrified to know that someone had snuck up behind him without his knowledge. It was as if Philip was immaterial. Feeling Philip's strength, the hooded man dared not say another word. He thought he was undefeatable, which was why he decided to watch the fun in person, but he got careless. “Are you saying that this rabbit belongs to you? Why don’t you
Jeff sneered at this scene and knew that it was time for payback. He did not plan to kill Hogster at first. After all, he was the young heir of a guild and represented the Hexa Guild. However, Hogster had pissed him off thoroughly. He had to kill Hogster at all costs. Thinking of this, Jeff raised the sword in his hand and stabbed Hogster. With that, everything was over. Alain closed his eyes at this scene. He shook his head in helpless agony. Due to the technique that he practiced, he could not have another child. Although he had been working hard to groom Hogster over the years, he had not stopped trying to get another child either. However, none of the women could get pregnant! Hogster was his only child so far. Unfortunately, his only son was dead. Under Jeff’s attack, he turned into dust and vanished without a trace! “How did things turn out this way?” Alain aged drastically all of a sudden and looked very haggard. The hooded man watched the scene warily, shocked
